Margot Robbie To Star In “Bad Monkeys”

Universal Pictures and Bluegrass Films have optioned the film rights to Matt Ruff’s 2007 psychological thriller novel “Bad Monkeys” with plans to adapt it as a feature.

Margot Robbie is slated to produce and is attached to star in the film as Jane Charlotte, who has been arrested for murder. Charlotte claims she’s a member of a secret organization devoted to fighting evil and that she’s working with the Department for the Final Disposition of Irredeemable Persons – aka ‘Bad Monkeys’.

Her confession lands her in the jail’s psychiatric wing, but is she truly crazy or is she playing a whole different game altogether? Scott Stuber and Dylan Clark will also produce.
